Wrong direction, wrong speed. Did someone forget to pay the bills this month?

I'm getting ready to leave for the Lake. Wind has come in at my house in Decatur.

It looked good when we arrived, but looks can be deceiving. The 2 foil boys saw me take off on my 7.0m and rigged up -BIG mistake. That was the only good wind of the afternoon. I think we arrived too late.

I'll be back earlier in the day on Friday.

Re: Looking Good for NW Wind on Wed.

It was a fun day. Got a few flights in. Foilman enjoyed his new wing; says it makes a difference. Glad to see Jim C. out.

In the market for a "branch" fin, though. Went over the handlebars when I hit a submerged tree branch. Thought I'd hit a reef or something but the water was deep and a few leaves floated to the surface. Weird.

Edit: added pic by Foilman. 6.0 in about 15
